Randall Robinson: An Unbroken Agony

I enjoyed a C-SPAN interview tonight featuring Randall Robinson, founder of TransAfrica, celebrated advocate for Africa, and noted author. 

His latest book entitled, An Unbroken Agony: Haiti, from Revolution to the Kidnapping of a President tells the story of the U.S. sponsored overthrow of democratically-elected president of Haiti, Jean-Berstrand Aristide in February 2004.

For sure, it will be added to my growing library very soon.  I’ve followed and enjoyed Robinson since reading about his decision to leave this country and take up residence in St. Kitts in his book, Quitting America: The Departure of a Black Man from his Native Land.

The C-SPAN interview shows a soft-spoken Robinson in the winter season of life (he celebrated 66 years on July 6) who still exudes a burning passion to reconnect Africa’s children and challenge western imperialism at its every turn.  Fortunately, I was able to record the 60 minute interview and plan to share it with others who would appreciate the wise words of one of our elders.

Thank you C-SPAN for providing this platform.
